The Chronicle of the Rebirth of the First Daughter

Chapter 339

"satisfying!"

Meng Yue'e leaned over with the medicine bowl in her hand: "Good boy, finish the medicine, and mother will buy you candy."

Wearing two braids, the thin, but very pretty little girl raised her head, obediently took the medicine bowl, no matter whether the medicine was bitter or not, she drank it all in one go, and handed the bowl to Yue'e : "Mother, this medicine is not bitter, but I don't need sugar."

Touching her daughter's head, Yue'e felt sore in her heart and almost shed tears.

If it was said that when her son died and a thin daughter was left, she, who had been pursuing power, was sad and sad, and wished to exchange her daughter's life for her son's life, then now she doesn't regret at all that she took good care of Kexin and made Kexin happy. The heart survived.

This child is too sensible, smart, and sees everything thoroughly. Knowing that they are in a bad situation, he can bear to drink such a bitter medicine. In order to save himself from spending money on expensive candy, He also told himself that the medicine was not bitter.

How could it not be bitter?

She decocted this medicine herself, tasted it after decocting it, and no one knows better than her what it tastes like.

"Kexin, we don't buy candy, but mother will make delicious food for Kexin at noon, and Kexin must eat well." Coaxing Kexin, Yue'e sighed again, this child is also suffering, originally Jin Zunyu The expensive princess of the royal family, speaking of it, is not at all inferior to Chen Yu from Yuechan's family, but now she has to live this kind of hard life with her.

Forget it, this child will not be liked by her biological father when she was born. At such an age, she doesn't even have a decent name. How about it, Yue'e knew in her heart that the child could be weak, and she didn't know if she would live to adulthood.

Going out with the bowl, Yue'e went into the kitchen, put down the bowl, and saw Yueting came in wearing an old green cloth dress with her hair tied up, saw Yue'e, smiled: "I just said to make some good food." Send the food to Kexin, but I didn't expect my sister to come here too, so let's rest and go, I'm good at cooking now, let me cook."

As she was talking, Yue Ting took care of things neatly, choosing vegetables, washing vegetables, washing rice, and cooking. She survived the whole process, her movements were fast, and her work was neat and tidy. The third miss of the Meng family in Yangchunshui.

Yue'e didn't go out, and helped Yueting cook at the side, and said while cooking: "Let's make some broth later, my sister is also thin now, eat some meat to supplement, but the heart and body are weak and can't eat too much meat, let her drink Some soup would do too."

Yue Ting smiled: "I see, no, I just went out and bought a piece of pork ribs. Today, the old Zhang's family who sells pork at the east end of the market has a piece of ribs left. Everyone thinks that the meat is too thin and no one wants it. His family is cheap." I sold it, and it cost me less money than usual."

Seeing that Yue Ting's eldest sons are fussing over every detail, Yue'e is heartbroken again, if...how could their sisters be like this? I don't know how much they waited for glass bowls and agate plates in the past. They have never felt distressed, Jin The silver utensils are not taken seriously at all. How much do you want a crystal white jade cup or a gold bowl and silver plate inlaid with jewels? This is just for a piece of pork at the moment.

"It's useless for me as a sister to let you and me live this kind of hard life."

Looking at the rough calluses on Yueting's hands, Yue'e sighed again.

Yueting stopped chopping vegetables: "What did my sister say? If my sister hadn't spent so much money to buy me, I still don't know what to do now. Because of my extra mouth, sister I have to resign the girl at home and accompany me to live the hard life now, but because I can't even eat a piece of candy, if my sister says such things again, she deliberately doesn't want me to live."

"That's all, that's all!" Yue'e shook her head: "I won't say such things anymore, as long as we sisters live well together, it's better than anything else. My mother has already passed away, and only the two of us are the closest in this world."

While talking, she took out a spare rib, chopped it into small pieces, washed it with clean water, boiled it in a pot of boiling water, removed the oil and blood, put it in a pot, and replaced the pot with clean water. Water, put the ribs in again, put some scallions, ginger, etc., cover the lid, and add some fire to the stove.

I thought to myself, I used to think that pork was dirty and was eaten by lowly people, not to mention eating it, even if I looked at it, I was afraid of dirtying my eyes, but now I want to eat it but I can't eat anything.

Here, Yueting cooked a plate of dishes and looked down at Yue'e who was stoking the fire under the stove: "Sister, when I just went out to buy ribs, I heard that sister Yuejuan is going to get married soon. Chan helped to find it, it seems that Aunt Xin and Yuejuan are very satisfied, the mansion is busy these few days, maybe, when will send us a post, shall we go or not?"

Yue Ting is also very embarrassed.

Speaking of which, when Yuejuan got married, their sisters should go, but what should I say, the mansion is very rich now, and the emperor's close ministers are also the Duke's mansion, so there may be many people rushing to congratulate her, and the gifts they give are also very rich. Precious ones, the sisters have nothing to offer now, what would they give if they go?Good ones can't afford to send them off, and those who send poor ones don't know if they will be ashamed of them and driven out.

After hearing this, Yue'e stood up and patted the dust off her hands after thinking about it for a while: "It stands to reason that we should go, just wait a little while, and I'll see if there are any good things that haven't been sold."

She left in a hurry, and came back excitedly after a while: "I just looked through it, and there is a white jade Guanyin statue from the old time. I will find something to pack when the time comes. Let's send it over as a kind gesture."

She had just finished speaking when she heard someone shouting outside the door: "Second Miss, is Second Miss at home?"

Yue'e went to open the door, and saw that it was Ji Wanrong's personal girl, Juan'er, she quickly smiled and said, "Why are you here, hurry up and sit in the room."

Juan'er entered the door with a smile, and sent the invitation to Yue'e: "Miss Four is getting married, and the date has been set, which is the sixth day of next month, when the time comes, Miss Two and Miss Three must go there, our grandma said I haven't seen the two young ladies for a long time. She is so busy with the fourth young lady's wedding that she can't take care of it for a while. Let me see if the two young ladies are doing well. Must speak."

Yue Ting came over with a smile: "We are fine, but I dare not bother my sister-in-law. When you go back, just say that we must go."

After hearing this, Juan'er left without even taking a sip of tea.

Yue'e made a bitter face: "In our current day, these servants are... yes, the tea in our house may not even be able to drink the low-level servants in the house."

Yue Ting said quickly: "Don't worry about her, we live our own lives, what about them has nothing to do with us."

Seeing that Yueting can think about it, Yue'e is also happy: "You are right!"

Suddenly smelling a burnt smell, Yue'e immediately changed her face: "Hurry up, the rice is all burnt."

Two people hurried into the kitchen to remove the fire, and the one who looked at the pot looked at the pot. Once they got busy, both of them turned into cat faces. Waiting to put the edible food in the basin, the two looked at each other, and couldn't help it Laugh out loud.

At night, Yue'e tossed and turned, unable to sleep, thinking of the past, and looking at the present, she felt sad, her eyes were red and tears fell, and the tears wet the pillow, but she didn't feel it at all.

After crying for a while, Yue'e closed her eyes, thinking about Kexin's body, and then thinking about Yueting's body, which was much worse because she was wet in the prison before, so she couldn't help but clenched her fists and made up her mind, no matter what, for her daughter , For the sake of my sister, I have to beg the person she doesn't want to beg.

Waking up early in the morning, Yue'e only said that she wanted to go out for a walk, leaving Yueting to take care of her daughter at home, and she went out by herself.

Walking along the way, Yue'e rested for a while when she was tired, but she was reluctant to spend money to hire a sedan chair, and walked for a long time before reaching the destination.

Seeing the majestic gate in front of you, the five-bay wide gate with a horse hitch, a light pole, and stone lions, it seems that it is indescribably rich.

The main door was not opened, and the side door was half-opened. A porter moved a stool and sat at the door, basking in the sun and humming a little song.

Yue'e gritted her teeth and stepped forward: "My little brother, I'm sorry to bother you, but I only said that the second lady of the Meng family came to visit the princess."

The concierge squinted at Yue'e a few times, thinking to himself that the second lady of the Meng family was not the former concubine of the prince. After hearing that the prince was killed, only their mother survived in the whole house. The emperor thought of this It's the last blood of the first prince, but I can't bear to be harsh. I rewarded her with a house to keep her alive. Seeing like this, it seems that life is not very good. Could it be that he came to our palace to play the autumn wind?

Even though he thought so, the palace had strict rules, and the concierge had to answer inside.

After a while, he came out in a hurry and clasped his fists at Yue'e: "The prince and concubine went to the village in the suburbs this morning, and now only Aunt Huan'er is left in charge of the mansion, and Aunt Huan'er asked the younger one to invite the second lady in." .”

Yue'e gritted her teeth, she used to look down on Huan'er, but now she asks to go to him, she doesn't know how she will be humiliated.

However, thinking about the current situation, she must go.

Carrying her skirt, she entered the gate of the palace, and reached a side room. Yue'e went in, but saw that it was a small hall for receiving guests. I'm really sorry, the princess went to Zhuangzi this morning. Everyone knows the prince's temper, and no one dares to offend him. Now we don't dare to talk to the princess, so I have to be a servant to entertain the second lady. Second Miss, don’t be offended.”

It was clear that she didn't want her to see Yuechan, Yue'e knew it in her heart, but she still had to smile: "How can I be offended, I also know how difficult it is for my sister."

She sat down, lowered her voice, and forced herself to say: "Our current situation... I am afraid that everyone will know, and we can only eat our food and beg for our lives. She can't even take medicine at such a young age, her body is naturally weak, and I'm afraid she won't live long without good medicine..."

While talking, Yue'e was ashamed and ashamed, and couldn't help crying.

Huan'er also sighed: "It's not easy for anyone to live a life like this. Don't look at the wealth and wealth outside our palace, but who knows what's going on inside. Now that the princess is not at home, how can I be the master? That's all. , I also have some money, Second Miss, take it for emergency treatment, besides, the former princess just rewarded me with a few slices of ginseng, and take it back to Second Miss, whether it is good or not is always a matter of heart."

When Yue'e came out of the palace, she couldn't help but want to stomp her feet.

She didn't even have a sip of hot tea, let alone a hot meal, and all she got was 20 taels of silver and a few dried ginseng slices.

Gritting her teeth, she felt the bloody smell in her mouth. Although Yue'e was not willing to give up her face to get these things, what else could she do now, she had to hold back her anger and go back, comforting herself privately, saving the 20 taels of silver. Flowers, I'm afraid they can last for several months.
